1,3-Dicarbonyl compounds have gained significant importance since they are abundantly available in the natural products and possess myriad biological activities. The new symmetrical 1,3-diketones bearing L-proline, 2-methyl-5-iodobenzoic acid, piperidine-3-carboxylic acid and naphthalene-1-acetic acid moieties were synthesized by coupling reaction of appropriate ketone with N-acyl triazole in the presence of MgBr2·Et2O and DIPEA. The chemical structure of the compounds were confirmed from the spectral data such as 1H, 13C NMR, FT-IR and HRMS. Molecular docking studies were carried out for all the compounds with tumor associated protein tyrosine kinase-6 (PTK6) and inflammatory protein cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2). The in vitro evaluation was carried out using breast cancer cell lines (MTT assay) and HRBC stabilization assays. During in silico studies, the ki values obtained against PTK6 and COX2 for (5a-d) compounds were in the range (-7.5 to -10.6) and (-7.6 to -9.8) kcal/mol, respectively. The compound 5d was selected for MTT assay, since it exhibited the highest binding affinity (-10.6 kcal/mol) against PTK6 and gave IC50 - 2.4 μg/mL against breast cancer cell lines. The HRBC stabilization of all the compounds (5a-5d) were in the range (59.28-93.4) %, with highest stabilization value by 5d, which also displayed higher binding affinity with -7.6 kcal/mol towards COX2. Thus, the synthesized symmetrical 1,3-diketones with suitable functionality can be both anticancer and anti-inflammatory agents.

The discovery for effective combinations of anticancer drugs for treatment for breast cancer is the actual problem in the experimental chemotherapy. In this paper we conducted a study of antitumor effect of the combination of sunitinib and bortezomib against MDA-MB-231 and SKBR-3 breast cancer cell lines in vitro. We found that bortezomib in non-toxic concentrations can potentiate the antitumor activity of sunitinib. MDA-MB-231 cell line has showed great sensitivity to the combination of bortezomib and sunitinib in vitro. Bortezomib and sunitinib caused reduced expression of receptor tyrosine kinases VEGFR1, VEGFR2, PDGFRa, PDGFRß and c-Kit on HER2- and HER2+ breast cancer cell lines

Background:Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer type in women globally. It is characterized by distinct subtypes depending on different gene expression patterns. Oncogene HER2 is expressed on the surface of cell and is responsible for cell growth regulation. Increase in HER2 receptor protein due to gene amplification, results in aggressive growth, and high metastasis in cancer cells.Methods:The current study evaluates and compares the anti-breast cancer effect of commercially available compounds against HER2 overexpressing BT-474, and triple negative MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines.Results:Preliminary in vitro cell viability assays on these cell lines identified 6 lead molecules active against breast cancer. Convallatoxin (4), a steroidal lactone glycoside, showed the most potent activity with IC50 values of 0.63 ± 0.56, and 0.69 ± 0.59 µM against BT-474 and MDA-MB-231, respectively, whereas 4-[4-(Trifluoromethyl)-phenoxy] phenol (3) a phenol derivative, and Reserpine (5) an indole alkaloid selectively inhibited the growth of BT-474, and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, respectively.Conclusion:These results exhibited the potential of small molecules in the treatment of HER2 amplified and triple negative breast cancers in vitro.

BACKGROUND: The voltage-gated calcium channel subunit alpha 2 delta 1 (α2δ1) is a functional tumor initial cells (TICs) marker for some solid cancer cells. This study aimed to investigate whether α2δ1 can be used as a potential TIC marker for breast cancer cells. METHODS: α2δ1+ and α2δ1- cells were identified and sorted from the breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-435s and ZR-75-1 by Immunofluorescence (IF) and Fluorescent-activated cell sorting (FACS) analyses. Spheroid formation in vitro and tumorigenesis in NOD/SCID mice were assessed to determine the self-renewal and serial transplantation abilities of these cells. Using a lentivirus infection system for α2δ1 in breast cancer cell lines, we determined the mRNA levels of stemnessassociated genes by quality real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Boyden chamber and wounding assays were further performed to detect the migration of α2δ1 overexpression cells. Bioinformatics explored the relationship of molecular classification of breast cancer and drug resistance. RESULTS: α2δ1 presents on the cytomembrane of breast cancer cells, with a positive rate of 1.5–3%. The α2δ1+ cells in breast cancer cell lines have a stronger self-renewal ability and tumor initiating properties in vitro and in vivo. Overexpressing α2δ1 successfully enhanced the sphere-forming efficiency, and upregulated the expression of stemness-associated genes, and increased cell migration. However, seldom significant was available between estrogen receptor +/- (ER+/-), progesterone receptor (PR+/-), and Her2+/-. CONCLUSIONS: Breast cancer cells positive for the α2δ1 charactered tumor initiation, and α2δ1 is a potential TIC marker for breast cancer that further promotes the migration.

Graphen oxide has emerged as a promising tool in medical biotechnology due to its outstanding properties applicable in several fields as well as cell imaging, drug and gene delivery. Monolayer structure and high surface area of Graphen benefits elevated loading capacity of drugs rather than other nanomaterials. However Graphen oxide in physiological solutions has unfavourable reactions which confine it’s application in biomedical field without additional surface functionalization. Coating of graphenoxide by polyethylenimine is an approach to enhance biocompatibility of graphen oxide and also provides desirable physicochemical features for oligonucleotides delivery. The data presented here is related to graphenoxide-PEI characterisation and it’s cytotoxicity assay on variouse breast cancer cell lines including MDA-MB-468 and MDA-MB-231 and MCF7 by MTT assay.

Various 4-substituted phenyl semicarbazone derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in vitro by NCI in the 3-cell line, one dose primary anticancer assay. Three compounds showed significant activity against breast MCF7 cell line and were further evaluated for potential anticancer activity in an in vitro human disease-oriented tumour cell line screening panel that consisted of 60 human tumour cell lines arranged in nine subpanels, representing diverse histologies. Leukemia, colon, ovarian and breast cancer cell lines were relatively more sensitive to these compounds than the other cell lines. The 4-carboxy substituted p-nitrobenzylidene phenyl semicarbazone (1c) emerged as the most active compound with average GI50 value (the molar drug concentration required for the 50% growth inhibition) of 28.6µM. This compound showed greater activity than methotrexate against NCI-H226(Lung), BT-549 and T-47D(Breast) cancer cell lines.
